  1. It's no good. You've over-complicated it. You can't have several sizes, you need one "cure all" sort of lid. Something that is either really big that you just place on top of whatever you're zapping, or something where you can adjust the size.

    You shouldn't need it to seal in anything, because you don't want a seal in the microwave, anyway. So I think just a big plastic disk would be perfect.

    Excuse me while I call my patent lawyer. -)

  2. I was thinking exactly of big plastic (non-stick/easy clean) clear disks with a handle.

    I remember this old universal lid for cooking on the stove that was like that. It was big and fit over just about everything. That's pretty much what I picture.

    But you DO need different sizes (at least two - Large and Small), because some things are too small. I have these small rice bowls with really small bases. I don't want to have to play a balancing game every time I want to nuke something.

    Call your patent lawyer! I'm putting this idea out there because it's something I would use myself (and the small-business-idea challenge is over for this year [just missed it]).
